What is the fastest way to sell a must sell item 

[kasun-shop]

List your item in the bidding system and list the same item in the Buy it Now mode.

What is a "must sell" item?

[soh.maryl]

Didn't you ask about shipping this item in another post?

You do know, do you not, that not every single item listed on eBay will sell?

I don't imagine a $4500 aquarium is going to sell quickly, if at all. 

[divwido]

You want them to list it twice?

[soh.maryl]

A $4500 aquarium which is already listed.

If you feel the item isn't going to sell on Ebay, there are other e-commerce sites you can list on and request local pick-up.  If it's a "must sell" put a best offer on and state the least you'll take for it.  It's a bit pricey for a used aquarium.

List it for $0.99 and free shipping.

If I had to hazard a guess, I'd say that a "must sell" item is something they have to unload because they're moving and can't take it with them.

There is no fast way to sell a $4500 aquarium set-up.  

That outfit takes up a lot of space, and the water alone will weigh about a ton (8.34 lbs per gal x 250 gal = 2085 lbs), so floor support can be an issue.   A king-sized waterbed weighs less than that, with the waterbed weight spread out over a much larger area.

No matter how or where you try to sell it, this will not be a quick sale.

Sell it at a liquidation price, which is usually about 15-20% below retail.  So if it is that fish tank in question, you might want to sell it locally for about $1,100.  But since you are listing it as new you can probably ask about half retail at around $2,700.  There is little way you can sell it quickly at only 15% below retail unless you were a dealer.

Can't answer that, but the slowest way would be using a 10 day auction...........
